        <div class="section"><h2>Building Apache log4cxx with Apple Xcode</h2>
<div class="section"><h3>Building log4cxx.dylib</h3>
<p>Run configure to generate log4cxx.h and log4cxx_private.h then launch Xcode.</p>
<div class="source"><pre>cd apache-log4cxx-0.10.0
./configure
open projects/log4cxx.xcodeproj</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="section"><h3>Running unit tests</h3>
<p>Run configure then open projects/testsuite.xcodeproj or projects/testsuite-standalone.xcodeproj (test suite and implementation in one project) in Xcode.</p>
<p>The unit tests require the working directory and several environment variables to be set. To set these, elect the executable in Groups &amp; Files and press Info and:</p>
<ul><li>In the General pane, set Working Directory to Custom with path &quot;../src/test/resources&quot;.</li>
<li>In the Arguments pane, add following key value pairs to &quot;Variables to be set in the environment&quot;: TOTO=wonderful, key1=value1 and key2=value2.</li>
<li>In the Arguments pane, add &quot;-v&quot; for verbose output, or individual test names in &quot;Arguments to be passed on launch&quot;.</li>
</ul>
</div>
<div class="section"><h3>Issues</h3>
<p>The project file generation does does not properly create an entry in the &quot;Link Binary with Libraries&quot; build phase for projects (such as the examples and unit tests) that depend on log4cxx. To work around the problem, open the project in Xcode and in the Groups &amp; Files pane, drag log4cxx.dylib and drop on the &quot;Link Binary with Libraries&quot; folder under Targets.</p>
<p>See issue <a href="http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOGCXX-245" class="externalLink">LOGCXX-245</a>
 for further information.</p>
<p>The projects provided in the release target Mac OS/X 10.5 which provides preinstalled APR and APR-Util libraries. To generate XCode projects to target Mac OS/X 10.4, set up the ant build and then &quot;ant build-projects-xcode -Dfind=false&quot;.</p>
